Undergraduate Telecommunication Network Laboratory

该项目将整合电话，数据， 和光通信专业。 图形 面向对象的软件CANeT将用于促进 直观和实验理解困难 网络概念和分析。 实验将是 在九个SUN IPX工作站上进行，由一个SUN IPX II服务 GX工作站。 这些工作站将通过一个 以太网和光纤FDDI网络。 以太网 网络将提供基本的低速通信， 工作站，而FDDI网络将用于演示 交通测量和高速网络， 图形、数据和视频。 网络除了是工具之外， 实验的对象，也是实验的对象。 学生将通过以下方式在真实的网络上获得实践经验 实现和测试基本网络协议， UNIX套接字。 课程后的特别项目将培训 学生处理真实的网络问题。课程强调 将复杂系统分析成其组成部分的技能， 解决组件问题，然后综合 组件解决方案，以满足系统目标。 工程 迭代是会议系统CANeT工具的一个关键功能 目标. 系统建模也被强调，而 CANeT有助于复杂的数学分析。 编程练习让学生学会沟通 通过实验，而不是通过破译 标准的首字母缩略词。该项目将建立一个现代的 网络实验室，有许多练习和项目， 分发实验室软件的计划是 incorporated. 一本基于新的 框架，而不是通常的OSI 7层框架将 完成

This project will integrate the teaching of telephony, data, and optical communication for undergraduates. The graphical object-oriented software CANeT will be used to facilitate an intuitive and experimental understanding of difficult networking concepts and analysis. The experiments will be performed on nine SUN IPX workstations served by a SUN SPARC II GX workstation. The workstations will be networked by an ethernet network and an optical FDDI network. The ethernet network will provide basic low-speed communication among the workstations, while the FDDI network will serve to demonstrate traffic measurements and high-speed networks for transporting graphics, data, and video. The network, besides being the Tool for experimentation, also is the Object of experimentation. Students will acquire hands-on experience on a real network by implementing and testing elementary network protocols using UNIX sockets. Special projects following the course will train students to handle real network problems.The course emphasizes the skill of analyzing a complex system into its components, solving the component problems, and then synthesizing the component solutions to meet system objectives. Engineering iterates is a key feature of the CANeT tool for meeting system objectives. System modeling is also emphasized, whereas sophisticated mathematical analysis is facilitated by CANeT. Programming exercises allow students to learn communication protocol by experimentation, rather than by deciphering acronyms of standards.This project will establish a modern network laboratory, with numerous exercises and projects, and plans for disseminating the laboratory software are incorporated. An undergraduate textbook based on a new framework rather than the usual OSI 7 layer framework will be completed.
